What if, instead, they "went native" (surely Radagast sets a precedent for the potential for Istari to fall in love with the wild and eschew the Free Peoples).

What if Tom Bambadil and Goldberry are indeed Alatar and Pallando gone native to the point of possibly having "forgotten" their Istari identities (which were only nom de plumes taken on when entering Middle-earth, to begin with...)
Well Goldberry actually had a mother, the River Woman,that Tolkien mentions. Unless the Blues Brothers brought Mom along, I doubt its possible
